Read to Someone - Daily 5!

Here is a video of us working on our stamina for Read to Someone. We are checking for understanding with each page we are reading!

Sophie's Poem Written during Free Writing Time

Today I'm getting a pet,

But I don't know which type I'll get

Maybe a cat,

Or maybe a rat.

I could get a dog,

Or I could get a hog.

What if I got a pig,

Can it do the jig?

I'd like a lion,

It's name would be Brian.

Today when I get my pet,

I'll have fun, I bet.

First Room 20 post for 2013

Welcome to all of our followers! Our names are Chelsea, Chloe, Ruby, Kate, Makenzie, Marshall, Willow, Bianca, Amy, Leah, Gabriella, Millie, Emma, Katie, Lily, Ashley, Joely, Tinashe, Kyle, Louie, Sophie, Mason, Guy, Matt, Noah and Mrs Woolford.

We really enjoy Daily 5, where we have practising reading to ourselves. We are building our stamina. So far we are up to 3min15sec. We read cool books! We've also been decorating our Daily 5 boxes - photo to come when we are finished!

We have also been trying to trick each other with true and false statements about ourselves.

We have been learning Statistics and made a balloon pictograph this morning.

We hope you have a great Waitangi Day tomorrow! From Room 20

What do you want to be when you grow up?

Welcome to 2013!

A huge welcome and welcome back to this year's Room 20 ACTIVE learners! I am so excited about this coming year, and have been spending a lot of time at school getting everything ready for a fun-filled year. There has been a lot of change around our school lately, with many classrooms moved to the old hall site to make way for the build of our brand new school to commence early this year. Our class is still in the same spot and ready for you all to come in tomorrow.

I'm looking forward to hearing all about your holidays. Mine were incredibly relaxing - check out that view!!

Please leave a comment about your holidays. (Remember to include your name).

See you all after 8.30am tomorrow. Please remember to bring a sunhat, drink bottle and sunblock.
